Here goes:

1. I, together with my colleague JR, now have a new career option: installing window frosted vinyl film.

2. The new office rocks. Free basement parking. Good Burgers. Big tables. Blue walls. Did I mention Mom and Tina's?

3. Here's a tip to help you get your PLDT DSL installed faster: complain constantly.

4. Lighting is everything. I recommend the Regalong Pambahay outlet along Pioneer Road.

5. If I could, I would live in Los Banos and never miss a thing.

6. My HTC Hermes, which I bought 85% new, is 100% awesome. I have no desire for an iPhone. Not yet, at least.

7. My officemates get nice LCD screens, and I have to stick to my CRT monitor. The bottomline is CRT monitors do a better job of showing CMYK colors (see Bruce RGB), and while it may cause more eye strain, I'd much rather tire from reality. The LCD screens are very useful, though, for Pro Evolution Soccer.

8. I am finding having less pride in my work more useful. Which means, I really do need another creative hobby.

9. Feist, Caribou, The National, Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova, and The Frames -- in that order.

10. Giant Robot back issues! Wheeee!
